From the Editor

Hello there,

Autumn has officially hit New England, which means bundling up and enjoying the last of the foliage. Recent family emergencies have had me on the road quite a bit and I found myself feeling grateful for the beautiful scenery here in New Hampshire – a welcomed distraction. It’s in these moments of crisis that you recognize how blessed you are to be surrounded by beautiful things, and even better, beautifully-spirited people. (And, I’m happy to report that my family is on the mend and life is good!)

This month we’ve got quite the assortment of articles and announcements to share with you. Please enjoy all of the advice, updates, and insight that our incredible contributors have to share!

Is there something you’d like to see in the VOICE? A particular subject you’d like us to address? Please don’t hesitate to contact us at voice@certifiedcoach.org with comments, questions, event notices, or article contributions. We are always looking for new perspectives and look forward to hearing from you.

Best,
Beth Ann
